Excerpt from Medieval Researches From Eastern Asiatic Sources, Vol. 1: Fragments Towards the Knowledge of the Geography and History of Central and Western Asia From the 13th to the 17th Century
I have also been laid under much obligation by a friend of many years' standing, Mr. C. Arendt, first Chinese Interpreter of the German Legation, and one of the most erudite and competent among living sinologues. He has frequently assisted me in the elucidation of difficult passages found in the Chinese texts of these ancient books.
When my papers on the Mediaeval Geography, &c., of Asia first passed through the press in Shanghai, about four teen years ago, I had the great advantage of my late friend A. Wylie's kind assistance, not only in taking charge of the proof-reading, but also in giving himself the trouble previously to study critically my manuscripts, and to illustrate my publications with many valuable notes, showing his intimate and multifarious acquaintance with the languages of the East, as well as with the history, astronomy, and mediaeval geography of Eastern nations.
